A site in the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transforming protein LMP1
that constitutively associates with the tumor necrosis factor receptor
1 (TNFR1)-associated death domain protein TRADD to mediate NF-
B and
c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation is critical for long-term lymphoblastoid cell proliferation. We now find that LMP1 signaling through TRADD differs from TNFR1 signaling through TRADD. LMP1 needs
only 11 amino acids to activate NF-
B or synergize with TRADD in
NF-
B activation, while TNFR1 requires ~70 residues. Further, LMP1
does not require TRADD residues 294 to 312 for NF-
B activation,
while TNFR1 requires TRADD residues 296 to 302. LMP1 is partially
blocked for NF-
B activation by a TRADD mutant consisting of residues
122 to 293. Unlike TNFR1, LMP1 can interact directly with
receptor-interacting protein (RIP) and stably associates with RIP in
EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines. Surprisingly, LMP1 does not
require RIP for NF-
B activation. Despite constitutive association
with TRADD or RIP, LMP1 does not induce apoptosis in EBV-negative
Burkitt lymphoma or human embryonic kidney 293 cells. These results add
a different perspective to the molecular interactions through which
LMP1, TRADD, and RIP participate in B-lymphocyte activation and growth.
